La Plata is the Charles County seat, so our clients here include law and accounting offices near the courthouse, practices that work with UM Charles Regional Medical Center, contractors and nonprofits. Most have no full-time IT person, or one person who needs backup.
See how we work with healthcare practices, government contractors, construction companies, nonprofits and small businesses.
Help desk, monitoring and monthly patching of every managed device.
Managed cybersecurity, from multi-factor authentication (MFA, a second sign-in step that makes a stolen password far less useful) on every account to firewalls and security awareness training.
Managed backup and disaster recovery, with test restores so you know your data comes back.
Setup, security settings, licenses and migrations.
New offices, rewiring, Wi-Fi and network upgrades.
Already have an IT person? We can back them up. Talk to us about what that looks like.
We start by documenting what you have: devices, network, accounts, licenses and backups. Then we fix the urgent gaps first, including MFA on every account, admin and email accounts included.
Your team calls or emails one help desk. Every managed device is patched monthly, monitored and backed up.
You see the work. We send monthly patch reports, and every quarter we walk through your backup reports and restore-test results with you in a technology business review.
Our Waldorf office is a short drive from La Plata, Port Tobacco and Indian Head, and two hours of travel is included with every onsite visit. Most problems we fix remotely; when it needs a person at your desk, we come to you.
Your support comes from ITAssurance staff. Outside our office hours (8:30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday), call our after-hours number and leave a message. It goes to our on-call technician.
Federal broadband data (FCC, December 2025) shows Verizon fiber across almost all of La Plata, Xfinity cable everywhere, plus fixed wireless from T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T and MINTernet and satellite from Starlink. If your phones and cloud apps depend on one connection, a second connection from a different provider can take over when the first one drops. We recommend a backup internet connection for most offices, and we set it up and manage it for you.
La Plata is served by SMECO (Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative). Report outages at smeco.coop/outage or 877-747-6326. A battery backup (UPS) on your firewall, network switches and server keeps a short flicker from taking your whole office offline. After a long outage, check that last night's backup actually ran; for our managed clients, we check.
Charles County's Pisgah Recycling Center is on Mason Springs Road in La Plata, but Maryland's permanent electronics drop-off sites are generally for residents, so business equipment usually goes to a commercial recycler or a manufacturer take-back program. County questions: the recycling hotline, 301-932-5656. Before any computer leaves your office, its drive should be wiped or destroyed. Or we can handle it for you: we preserve the data you need to keep, sanitize or destroy the drives following NIST SP 800-88 (the federal guideline for media sanitization), recycle the equipment and give you a data destruction certificate.
Internet, phones, cabling and moving every computer can take weeks to line up, so start early. See our IT office relocation services.
